Hip hop:))

Today my class, Class Aurora, and the second half of Class Belle, took part in a hip hop class in our PE time.  I have about 10 left feet and can never touch my toes so I did not expect myself to find it easy at all!  We were introduced to the dance instructor, Karen, and then we started dancing.

We are dancing to Ariana Grande "Break Free".  We were shown some moves and then had to dance it to the music.  I thought we had done a lot of the song but after we danced it to the song, it was only about 2 lines.  This experience has shown me that to find dancing easy, good co-ordination and rhythm would be really handy.  Even though I have neither of these, I found it really fun!

Shoutout to Ella, Ellie and Aoife <3 for being the best dancers going xx

Solar eclipse:))




There was a solar eclipse today.  It got really dark when we were in music at about 9:30.  Sadly it was really cloudy so we couldn't see anything:(( however Mr Lawlor told us today that looking at an eclipse damages your eyesight a lot so I guess we were lucky!!

Let's go ballin'

This week has been a very exciting week.  With Paddy's Day on Tuesday, we had Monday and Tuesday off, making it a short week.  We then had work experience on Wednesday so the only days we would be in school would be Thursday and Friday!

For the past few months Sarah Mc had been organising a ball for TY's, 5th and 6th years in aid of Temple Street Hospital so thanks for that!!  It is taking place today and everyone is getting excited.  I have never been to a ball before so I have no idea what to expect.  I got my dress a few weeks ago in Coast and am getting my make up done.  I am nervous for this as I have never gotten my make up done by someone before but I am sure it'll be okay:)) hopefully it'll be a good night and I wish Molly all the best tonight xx

Busy bees:)))

The past two weeks have been very busy.
Two Friday's ago we participated in lollipop day in town.  I was selling with Méadhbh and Jane.  Each lollipop was in the shape of a heart and cost €2.  We had to wear caps and t-shirts to stand out from the busy crowd.  We sold loads and even sold a lollipop to the famous gardener Diarmuid Gavin;)  For lunch we went with Molly and Hannah to McDonalds which was very nice and we spent agess in there!  Here we are looking our bestest:))


Last Friday we had Scifest.  Lucy, Orla and myself are doing how screen time is affecting our eyesight.  We were put beside a group who were doing the exact same as us so all the judges gave us a few weird looks.  In the end we got through and now we have to do it all over again in Tallaght.  Well done gals!!

On Monday we went to the Junior hockey final.  It was cold at first but then we started cheering with the second years:)) sadly they lost but they played really well!

This Tuesday we went to the cinema with history to see Selma.  It was about the American Civil Rights Movement.  Oprah was in it.  It was much better than I thought it would be but it was really long and Eve beside me was crying a lot, poor Eve!! Myself and Jane bought lots of food and I was so stuffed afterwards, it was all good though so no harm done:))


Yesterday my class had our percussion workshop.  I have 0 rhythm so I wasn't sure if I would like it.  It was really good though and was a great laugh.  The man doing it had been all around the world and had loads of stories to tell.  He even got lost on a volcano!! It was one of the better workshops I felt so this has been a very good week!
